Twitter Is Confused About Jack Harlow's BET Award Nomination

Jack Harlow is a variety of things, but one of those things is not Black.

Nevertheless, he had three nominations at last night's BET awards.

Harlow didn't win anything. But he did show up and that made for many confused takes on Twitter.

Listen I fucks with Jack Harlow. But how is it that he got 3 noms but Lil Nas X got zero? So the BET Awards can recognize non black artists but not black queer artists? Ugh https://t.co/EhcT5xBhAs

Harlow isn't the first white rapper to be nominated. Eminem has been quite a few times. So at least Harlow is in good company.
